For almost 15 years, MEI School has relied on SchoolAdminCE for the everyday administration that matters: admissions, fee collection and expense management. What began offline evolved online in 2020.
A long-term school technology relationship built around independent day-to-day use.
MEI International School’s success deserves recognition beyond its growing student numbers. It reflects the commitment of its management, teachers and staff to educating children and helping them build a confident future.
Founded in 2002 by a group of engineers, MEI International School in Chikkabanavara, Bengaluru, began with a purpose: to meet the community’s need for quality education. Its stated philosophy recognises each child’s individual abilities and aspirations, and places value on discipline and civic responsibility.
That commitment reaches beyond the classroom. The school describes support for disaster-affected communities, old-age homes and orphanages—encouraging students to learn compassion alongside academics. Education that develops both capability and social responsibility can empower young people to contribute meaningfully to society.
MarvelSoft is proud to have supported MEI School’s administrative journey since 2011. The credit for the school’s progress belongs to its people; SchoolAdminCE supports the everyday work behind their educational mission.

The value is not simply that MEI School has used SchoolAdminCE for years. It is that the school team runs its core administrative workflows themselves, while MarvelSoft remains available through managed support when needed.
MEI School’s supplied records begin at 331 students in 2010–11. For 2026–27, the dataset records 1,126 students. SchoolAdminCE continued to support the school as its scale and administrative workload changed.
The school originally operated SchoolAdminCE offline. In 2020 it moved online, enabling management to access the system remotely.
Admissions, fee collection and expense management are handled by the school’s own staff. The team does not depend on the software vendor for routine daily operation.
Members of the management team can access the system remotely to review school activities — giving decision-makers visibility even when they are away from campus.
Student counts naturally rise and fall from year to year. The long-term picture is what matters: the latest supplied strength is more than three times the 2010–11 starting point.

An early MarvelSoft customer, initially using the software in an offline setup.
School staff use the system for admissions, fee collection and expense management as part of normal school operations.
SchoolAdminCE evolves with the school, enabling online and remote access for authorized management members.
The school continues to operate the system largely on its own, typically contacting MarvelSoft around annual new-year setup while remaining under managed support.
A successful school system should become easier to own over time. MEI School’s experience highlights four practical outcomes worth evaluating before you buy.
Your staff should be able to run admissions, collections and routine administration without calling the vendor every day.
Your software should remain useful as student strength, transaction volume and management requirements increase.
Moving from local/offline operations to online access should be an evolution, not a forced reset of established school processes.
Remote access can help authorized management members stay connected to school activity and make informed decisions.
The sign of mature school software is not frequent support calls. It is a team that confidently manages normal work themselves.
Managed support provides continuity for periodic setup and assistance while keeping the school in control of daily operations.
Choose a school system your team can own today — and keep using as your institution grows.
MEI School’s long-term SchoolAdminCE journey illustrates that principle.
Start with a system designed for real school administration. Evaluate SchoolAdminCE with your own admissions, fee and office workflows — and see whether your team can make it their own.
